Nice to see that you still have the Rolling Rocks. Do you have updates turned off?

The damage to your IP is likely permanent as a result of a chemical reaction of the cleaner and the heat. You can try blending it, but will likely have to replace it.

Not that it does you any good right now, but for others reading, it is best to test detailing products on inconspicuous components. Apply to an applicator and not spray directly on the surface.

There have been instances where air fresheners have melted the interior plastics.

Yes. The rolling rocks get replaced with a "glowing" Bronco. Not sure which update number, but it's been out awhile. Some have the updates turned off and some for whatever reason receive the updates on a much later push schedule. AFAIK, the startup screen can be changed via ForScan, but most won't bother.

Try a Mr Clean sponge.

In another vehicle, I reduced the appearance of this with a heat gun and iso alcohol
Can't say if it was the same plastics or cleaner as you used. I have never tried it on my Bronco.

There are several companies that make vinyl overlays for that area. Just another option rather than replacement. I went with a flag style .

yeah forsure that looks good ! i was debating on it just for the fact of my dash is grey and with a black overlay i feel would look a bit funky urs is black so u could probably barely tell its a overlay it looks good !

Was just going to say carefully try a heat gun as that should take it out. Keep it moving in circles and slowly heat up the area gradually.
